Am I The Only One Who Wants A Decent Scrub Bar?

On both my iPhone and iPad I REALLY hate the inadequate scrub bar. I know I have fat fingers but to try to replay a a few minutes - or fast forward - it's nearly impossible to get even in the vicinity of where I need to get with the current bar.
How about keeping the current scrub bar to show progress, but you should be able to tap on it to get a large scrub wheel for accurate fast forward or rewind. There could be a 1x 2x or 3x indicator in the center each time you tap it to adjust the scrub speed.
I listen to podcasts on my iPhone and iPad every day and this is driving me nuts. Is this one of those insider secrets that's already there and I don't know it?

When scrubbing, slide your finger down the screen to slow down the scrub rate.

I am the only one who wants face recognition in LR ?

first... i know where to request features and that this is not the right place.
the feature was requested a long time ago in this forum and also at the adobe feature suggestion website.
i really hoped that with LR 4 we will see face recognition.
and i think it´s a feature many LR user would love to see in lightroom... right?
i have tested a few programs and their face recognition a while ago.
picasa was a bit buggy but the actual face recognition and tagging capability is good. IDImager face recognition was not that accurate.
other apps i have tested... well not worth to mention.
i still found picase and idimage usefull and while face recognition was not perfect .... it was a great help.
please support this feature request if you like by voting here:

THX!

This seems to be a heated topic wherever it's brought up. Let me start by saying that I work in the software industry and totally understand the tradeoffs you have to make sometimes. You don't have infinite resources...ever. And I understand the sensitivity in this case because for folks who have used LR for a long time and are dependent on it to get their job done, they clearly want investment in features that they know they will use. If you have used Lightroom for a while and have an established workflow, I can totally understand why face recognition would be useless. And if it's useless, it's logical that you'd want investment in something that was...well...useful.
I, however, agree with the poster and believe that facial recognition is a pretty important feature for Lightroom.
I'd like to offer two perspectives.
The first is my personal perspective. I would consider myself a casual user. I'm a family guy. I've got about 65k photos in my collection and they are all friends/family. My organization scheme has been through 3-4 computers and multiple backup systems over the years. It has been through a variety of different tools from some homegrown things to native Windows tools to Picasa. Bottom line, I have a real mess. Many duplicates due to funny sync strategies but being paranoid about losing photos. Multiple folders because my wife is not so computer savvy and often makes multiple copies. Very little organization. We have a real mess. I've known it for a while and have spent several months trying to find the right solution. Picasa didn't scale for us. IDImager was promising but they are going through some regrowth as they try to adapt to the Mac user community where it was only previously for Windows. Lightroom was the only product I found that could come close to meeting all of my needs. So now I have it in place. I have all of my pictures imported into the catalog. But I need to start tagging/organizing. I want facial recognition to get me started...having to go through 65,000 and manually type keywords for each one is unreasonable. For new photos I import I can do it piecemeal...no problem, and no facial regonition required. Until I can get the existing photos into a searchable/maintainable state, however, I can't take full advantage of Lightroom. While it may not be forever useful, it's crticial to new users getting started with the product.
The second is an industry perspective. Adobe has clearly branded itself as the leader in image editing technology. Heck, "photoshop" is now used as a verb in the average household for people who have never even used the product! That's awesome marketing. That's awesome brand presence. You don't get to be a leader by saying yes to everything. You have to selectively say no. But in cases where you are falling behind from a technology perspective and leaving an obvious hole in your portfolio (especially while potential competition is buying up companies/IP to compete).
In my opinion, the "personal DAM" market is underserved today. The digital age is causing even casual users to outgrow products like Picasa. People are looking for something new. While Lightroom is probably overkill for most of them (me included), it's one of the few products on the market that has a large support community and actually does have enough features to support all of the needs of the home. While more expensive than most of the other home products, it's not out of reach even for the casual user. Adobe has the potential to grow market share (actually, to even grow the market) if they target those needs and improve their "on ramp" for new users. Besides face recognition, this is probably 80%+ a marketing issue and not one requiring product features.

Am I the only one who wants the "tap to tweet" or "tap to post" option back? It was available on iOS6 but not 7.

I was very disappointed when I found out you can't tap to tweet or post to facebook with the new drop down menu. I don't know if anybody else misses this easy, convinent option but I know I do.

Maybe use the portable Firefox version on a USB stick if you want to prevent access to your profile.<br />
Solutions that use an extension can easily be bypassed by starting in [[Safe mode]].<br />
Otherwise you need to locate the Firefox profile folder on an encrypted drive.

Am I the only one who thinks that itunes eq presets do nothing?

Am I the only one who thinks that itunes eq presets do nothing? Bass on my cd walkman is many times more superior to the one i get from ipod or macbook. And those eq presets are useless. I want real bass. I get far better bass on cd walkman with the same headphones. It has been an issue from day one when i got my first ipod when they started making ipods. It stores a lot of music but the quality of bass is so useless. eq are useless. don't start on eq, they are rubbish in comparison to a cd walkman.

They are more noticable on a good set of headphones. However, I never EQ my music, I would rather listen to it how its supposed to sound then just +6 on the low end to get a rumble. I think that's Apple mentality aswell

Am I the only one who hates iMovie 08?

I just bought iLife 08. AM I the only one who hates iMovie 08? WHat happened to the timeline? what happened to the titles? What happened to being able to adjust the audio frame by frame....guess it was just Apple's way to get us to buy Final Cut Express which I just did.....
Is it just me, or was iMovie 06 better and easier to use???

Most owners of iLife 08 I know use iMovie 06.
iMovie 08 is a wonderful program assuming that you're using it for what it was designed to do, assemble simple videos to share on the Internet.
I use both iMovie 06 and iMovie 08 (iMovie 06 about 90%, iMovie 08 about 10%).
I do find that iMovie 08 is "feature reduced" and not as DVD friendly compared to iMovie 06. iMovie 06 is "timeline based", iMovie 08 is "clip based". The lack of a true timeline in IM08 is hard to get used to for some.
It is true that you can make a DVD using iMovie 08 but I find it to be harder. iMovie 08 has replaced "Share to iDVD" with "Share to media browser". Also iMovie 08 cannot set chapter markers, this has to be done with another program.
iMovie 08 is NOT an upgrade of iMovie 06. It is a completely new application. iMovie 08 is better for absolute beginners that don't want to burn a DVD. Most others will like iMovie 06 for its far greater editing power and ease of making DVDs. (Like creating Chapter Markers and Share to iDVD.)
Remember that Apple includes iMovie 06 as a free download to iLife 08 owners. (They want you to have it.)

Much has been written about the differences between iMovie 06 and iMovie 08. I have found the below link to be helpful.

Am I the only one who likes iOS 6?

No issues at all with wireless connectivity, I hardly ever used the YouTube app, I kind of like the new maps app, no change in battery depletion rate, and I enjoy all the other tweaks. Love having Siri on my iPad. The only thing to complain about is the change in the way the apostrophe and quote mark short cuts work.
Am I the only one who didn't have any issues upgrading and likes the new OS?

I was very happy with iOS 6... Until I started using it. On iPhone 4S and iPad 2 - nothing but problems. App Store, notification center, iMessage and safari all buggy. Notification center just disappears on 4s. Just not there. I restart it, fine for awhile, and then gone again. Msgs are all messed up. Freezes up, get wierd duplicate screen that freezes in place, and the scrolling is behind it, so can't read msgs. Restart app doesn't fix, but restart phone does. But then it happens again. Links in mail starts to open safari page, then gets stuck. Things that were previously clickable no longer are (that one is weird). Hangs, Wally really slow loading (and I am on 100mb down). It no longer wants to play nice with my atv3 either (but then again my atv3 has always been junk, my two atv2's have been flawless). App Store ***** now - cant read any reviews other than the first three or four it shows (and what happened to sorting the reviews?!?!?). Hangs, freezes.vvhate that podcasts were removed from music app, personally. Wat happened to my 30 sec rewind in music?!?!? Yu take away my music rewind but add a 10 sec rewind to podcasts!? Dumb. And the podcast app is wonky. But it has been since intro.
Nope. 6 is not polished. At all. It feels like a Microsoft release really. Rushed, great ideas with terrible carry thru.
Why apple, why?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Am i the only one who when trying to enter the code for creative cloud activation ?

I give up,i have been trying to activate a 3 month subscription for CS6 from Staples and every time i try the code it will not work. I have used the chat live and spent about 3 hours already going nowhere. I do not like talking on the phone to some help desk overseas and the only thing i think left to do is to return the junk.

I tried all that and even took a picture of the numbers and blew them up so a blind person could read them and had 3 others read them off. A simple way to fix the problem is get someone on Adobes staff to find a font that most people can read from whatever product the stick it to.

Hey John,
Not sure if it helps or not, but I know sometimes with codes like that its really hard to tell certain characters apart, O - like in Oscar versus 0 - number and number 1 versus lowercase L like in Lima.
Might test entering it both ways if you have any suspect characters?

Am I the only one who keept turning down Infinity?

With all the posts on these forums from people complaining that the Infinity roll-out in their area has been delayed again, I wonder if I'm the only one who repeatedly turns down BT's offers to upgrade to Infinity?
The trouble is that I re-contracted earlier this year to get a better deal on my broadband and phone. In addition to tweaking the package I was on, BT gave me a £6 per month discount on every bill.
At the time, I didn't consider that Infinity was likely to arrive on my exchange any time soon, because it's a small edge-of-town one, and not even upgraded to 21CN yet. Nevertheless, while BT Wholesale have dithered over upgrading the exchange to ADSL2/2+, Openreach have been busily laying fibre and upgrading cabinets. So my exchange now has Infinity, but only 8M ADSL.
I've now had three phone calls from BT salespeople, in addition to the letters and emails, all trying to sell me Infinity. And all expect me to pay the full price with no discount.
Quite frankly, I don't really need more than 8M at the moment, and I'd rather keep the discount. With any luck, the exchange will be upgraded at the end of this year (it's due to be done in December), so I may be getting close to 20M anyway by the time renewal comes around.

For years my average download speed was approx` 5Mb to 6Mb. Then unexpectedly a few weeks back whilst doing a random BT-Speed Test I was surprised (nicely surprised) to find that my connection speed was up to 19Mb and my new download speed was nearly 17Mb. I`d no emails from Bt. The exchange where I live is not in line for infinity for years (according to the engineer I spoke to who works there). But with the connection/download speed I have now, I`m not bothered, plus the new negotiated contract with BT (which runs for another six months yet) I`m a very happy chappy

Go to Crucial.com and use one of their two methods to determine what upgrades are available for your Mac:
I would purchase the modules from Crucial as they are very reliable and wiill work with you if you have problems.

How to make sure I'm the only one who can manage my airport base station using airport utility?

I know we have to use the Airport Utility application to manage the Airport base station in order to create a new network, creating the SSID and chosing the encryption mode and setting the password but how I could be sure I'm the only one who have access to those settings? A user of my network can install the Airport Utility application and change those settings. With other routers like D-Link, to have access to the settings you need to know the admin password to modify the settings. I can't figure out how we can do this with Airport Extreme base station. It's maybe obvious but I'm in the cloud for the moment.

You can set a base station administrator password in order to limit who can administer the base station. With AirPort Utility v6.x, you can set this password on the Base Station tab.

I am getting the message that my email password and/or username is not correct. It is correct! I am the only one who cannot send or receive emails...I am the only one using a mac.

I am getting the message that my email password and/or username is not correct. They are both correct! I am the only one who cannot send or receive emails...I am the only one using a mac. i use mac mail and it is my companies server. I took my computer and iPhone to the Apple store...4 hours later they said that couldn't figure out why it wasn't working. Any suggestions???? I am also not able to log into the C-Panel...

Same here! Happened yesterday to me on New iPad and iPhone 4S. On iPad I managed to correct it by removing the account and activating it again as an Exchange account...I have mail and calendar OK!
On the iPhone nothing seems to work!
Facts:
1. everything worked perfectly for years!
2. I have the 2-step authentication deactivated on my google account so it cannot be this one.
3. On desktop everything works just fine, on iPad everything is OK with Exchange account added (after Google removed support for Exchange account access I CAN ONLY HAVE ONE DEVICE with Google Exchange account, so doing the same on the iPhone does not work!)
4. Tried to remove and add the account again - no results.
5. Tried to remove and add as Google, as Exchange, as Other account - I get calendar but no mail!!!
6. Tried to reboot between remove/add accounts - no results.
7. Tried to ("reset settings") reset the device - no results.
8. Tried to add as POP account and I it worked - I get mail but I do not need POP as I am using zounds of mail with labels and need to be working on an IMAP account
9. To make things even more complicated...I have another account which works perfectly!!!!!
Anyone out there having a clue?

I downloaded Yosemite last night but when I tried to update iPhoto, I got an error message stating that that app and several others couldn't be updated because they weren't paid for by the user id entered. I'm the only one who uses this computer.

I downloaded Yosemite last night and tried to look at my photos in iPhoto and noticed that needed updating. When I tried to update as requested, I got an error message stating that the app (and several others including Pages and Numbers) couldn't be updated because they weren't purchased by the user ID I had entered. I'm the only user of the computer and now I can't find my photos anywhere! Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Some folks have solved this issue by dragging the apps to an external disk, then disconnecting it, and then are able to download. Apparently it can arise if you upgraded from an OS the than Mavericks.
Failing that: Contact App Store support. There's a link on the right hand side of the App Store Window. They're the only ones who can sort out account issues.

Am I the only one who finds iTunes 11 tedious in the extreme?

Am I the only one who finds iTunes 11 tedious in the extreme? iTunes used to be easy to use but not now. For instance is there a way to delete an entire album from iTunes without deleting each individual song? Small example of my frustration with iTunes as it stands.

Thanks Airsculpture.
As I suspected you cannot just delete an entire album. It is a laborious and time consuming procedure. I got used to most updates but this one is truly awful and not user friendly at all.
Thanks for taking the time to reply though. It is appreciated.
